This document is part of a series of documents designed by the French Physical
and Rehabilitation Medicine Society (SOFMER) and the French Federation of PRM
(FEDMER). These documents describe the needs for a specific type of patients; PRM
care objectives, human and material resources to be implemented, chronology as
well as expected outcomes. "Care pathways in PRM" is a short document designed to
enable the reader (physicians, decision-maker, administrator, lawyer or finance
manager) to quickly apprehend the needs of these patients and the available
therapeutic care structures for proper organization and pricing of these
activities. Stroke patients are divided into four categories according to the
severity of the impairments, each one being treated according to the same six
parameters according to the International Classification of Functioning,
Disability and Health (WHO), while taking into account personal and environmental
factors that could influence the needs of these patients.
